Trying to rush through setting up topics, whilst building a site (and being half asleep), rather than clicking on delete Topic, I deleted the text in the topic name, topic text and topic image (deleting PostNuke and linux?).

Now when I go to the topics page I have two blank "topics" at the beginning of my topic list.

Is there any way I can delete these??

Thanks

That's quite a pickle you've got there. I think you should be able to edit your database directly and remove the two rows. If that's uncomfortable, then just edit in some names for them so that you can select them and delete them in admin -> topics.

I'd be happy editing the database, if I could figure out how - I've looked at the database via phpMyAdmin, but can't figure out what to do next - i presume it is in the nuke_topics section - Here are my field listings:

Field Type Attributes Null Default Extra Action
pn_topicid tinyint(4) No auto_increment
pn_topicname varchar(255) Yes NULL
pn_topicimage varchar(255) Yes NULL
pn_topictext varchar(255) Yes NULL
pn_counter int(11) No 0
Check All / Uncheck All With selected:

perhpas if you could explain how to edit in new names for the blank topics, so i can delete them from admin.

Thanks Chris

While viewing the table, click the browse tab (top of the screen). This will display the actual data of the table. There's two icons towards the left end of each row. One is edit, and the other is delete. I think you can just pick out the two blank ones (pn_topicname will be blank) and delete them. If you prefer, click the edit icon for the blank rows and edit in text, and then delete the topic from admin.

COOL - that was straightforward.

Thanks
